Finding Refuge in the Body, a Meditation with Sean Fargo

When looking to feel safe, grounded, at peace, or joyful, we typically search outside of the body for something to help put us at ease. But tranquility is available in our own body, at all times. In this guided meditation, Mindfulness Exercises founder Sean Fargo guides us to become more mindful of the areas within ourselves that offer us safe refuge . 

We’re invited to breathe, soften and allow, noticing which parts of the body feel calm, relaxed and full of presence. Becoming more mindful of these grounding sensations offers us the opportunity to take refuge in the body, from moment to moment, throughout our day. 

Listen in a safe, quiet place where you can be relatively free from distraction. You can practice this body scan meditation while standing, seated, or lying down.
